Chapter 384: GRW

Lauren did not sleep for the entire night. The rain continued to fall as if someone had turned the sea upside down. The rain seemed to fall on the ground with great force, causing the leaves to rustle loudly.

During the night, almost the entire family came to Lauren’s room to check on her. They were worried that the thunder would scare her.

Franklin and Bryce even met each other on the way, creating a huge joke. Lauren almost could not hold back her laughter.

But she pretended to be fast asleep so as not to trouble her family.

In fact, she took everyone’s concern to mind and kept it in her heart.

Sean came with Maria once, and Lauren could hear Maria sobbing in low voice.

“Lauren has lived alone outside for so many years, and I don’t know if anyone accompanied her when she faced a situation like this. Sean, I feel like I’ve let Lauren down. I gave birth to her, but I didn’t let her have a happy childhood.”

“Maria, don’t think so. We have indeed let Lauren down, but we didn’t have a choice back then. Now that Lauren is back and your body has recovered, we still have a lot of time to make it up to her in the future.”

Lauren lay on her side with her back facing them. Her eyes were closed as if she was sleeping soundly, but she could hear everything they said clearly.

After they left, Lauren turned around with tears in her eyes.

Without Divine Nine acting as her “stabilizing needle” in her spiritual consciousness, Lauren tossed and turned all night without falling asleep. It was as if something was going to happen after she fell asleep.

Lauren did not fall asleep until dawn. The rain was still falling and the sky was gloomy.

There was still no sign of Divine Nine coming back.

Lauren’s phone watch, which she had placed on the bedside table, suddenly rang.

She was startled by the sound and picked it up to take a look. It was a number that she did not recognize. Moreover, the composition of the number was a little strange. It did not seem to be a local phone number.

She pressed the answer button and felt a little uneasy for some reason.

“Hello?” Lauren spoke first.

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end, followed by static. fr(e)ewebnov(e)l.com

Following that, a strange voice was heard.

“Hello, Lauren.”

It was a terrible voice, as if it was squeezed out of one’s throat. It was hard to tell if it was a man’s or a woman’s voice.

“Who are you?”

The sound of electricity could be heard from the other side.

“You don’t have to worry about who I am. I’m just representing everyone and issuing a challenge to you.”

Lauren turned on the recording function on her watch and asked, “Who is ‘everyone’?”

However, the person on the other end of the line did not intend to answer Lauren’s question.

“Get ready to face the challenge. We have returned strong. Ghosts will rule the world!”

Then, the call ended.

With a click, the sound of electricity on the other end of the line disappeared. Lauren’s room instantly returned to its usual tranquility, leaving only the sound of raindrops hitting the window.

Lauren’s heart was still thumping. The sound just now had really scared her. It made her think of hell. fre ewebno vel.com

She gulped and then dialed back.

Although she was afraid, she hoped that the call would be connected.

However, it was not.

The electronic voice indicated that the number was invalid.

Lauren had no choice but to give up. Then, she replayed the call that she had just recorded for a few seconds.

“Ghosts will rule the world...ghosts will rule the world?”

Lauren silently recited the sentence in her head. Suddenly, she seemed to have caught on to something.

She quickly got out of bed and ran to the desk. She took out the pendant that she and Bryce had found at the amusement park’s haunted house.

If she remembered correctly...

She flipped the pendant over. At the bottom right of the rose, there were three letters: GRW.

Lauren’s heart sank.

This was not a coincidence, right?

She held the pendant in her hand and thought to herself, ‘I must inform the other hosts. Maybe that ten seconds of clanging yesterday was related to this!’

However, she didn’t know how to contact them! Divine Nine was gone. It was as if she had completely lost contact with that world.

Just as Lauren was at a loss on what to do, a golden light suddenly flashed in her head. Lauren felt as if she was overwhelmed by this sudden burst of energy.

She took two steps back and sat down on the bed.

This burst of energy lasted for a few seconds. After enduring the initial shock, Lauren felt relaxed. It was as if someone had injected this energy into her blood vessels and flowed through her internal organs.
